Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

Couple counselling - Marriage and Family therapy: Engaging couples and families in productive relational problem-solving is a speciality - especially in the understanding of negative relational triggers. Other specialities are general anger management, domestic violence substance abuse and family crisis (loss of a a loved one, work or school difficulties, career dilemmas, etc.).

How Psychotherapy Can Help

Psychotherapy can help clients to begin the process of reconciliation while supporting their relational assets. Psychotherapy in and of itself is not curative but can motivate clients to use productive strategies to deal with their relational concerns and improve motivation to continue the healing process once counselling has ended.
